I do mine like you with butter, milk and seasonings and sometimes chives if I have them. <br />Thanks for letting me know that this was a real dish, I just thought it was simple food that we enjoyed eating.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17127973988759014730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1481858606521968789.post-12245212810966287562012-04-17T03:52:42.113-07:002012-04-17T03:52:42.113-07:00I think you'll like it Alea.

I've eaten Clapshot many times - it's very popular in the UK, although it is often just referred to as Neeps and Tatties in England itself. Whatever you call it, it definitely a delicious dish, well worth making and wonderfully frugal too. Colcannon and Bubble and Squeak are still very popular here as well.April J Harrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08960965411211616404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1481858606521968789.post-41652006130597713772012-04-09T19:59:59.411-07:002012-04-09T19:59:59.411-07:00Thank you for stopping by to check it out. :)Thank you for stopping by to check it out. :)Aunt Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12805537873269992072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1481858606521968789.post-34522516012728536592012-04-09T18:32:24.245-07:002012-04-09T18:32:24.245-07:00I've never heard of clapshot and certainly hav...I've never heard of clapshot and certainly haven't ever had mashed potatoes and rutabagas.
